Best Rigatoni With Red Sauce And Parmesan Recipes

RIGATONI AL SEGRETO (RIGATONI WITH SECRET SAUCE)

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions, salt. Cook until no longer white and starting to turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic; cook about 1 minute. Add chili flakes and blended tomato sauce. Bring to a simmer; adjust heat to medium to medium-low. Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for 45 to 60 minutes. Reduce heat to low.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook rigatoni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes (5 minutes from doneness).
• Add about 2/3 of the basil to the sauce. Stir in butter. When butter melts, add cheese in 3 increments.
• Drain pasta; transfer to sauce. Stir until rigatoni are evenly coated with sauce. Serve sprinkled with the remaining basil and a dusting of grated cheese.

RIGATONI WITH TOMATO PARMESAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onions and salt. Stir until the onions are translucent (about 5 minutes).
• Add the garlic. Cook and stir for an additional 1 minute.
• Add the red pepper flakes and blended Italian tomatoes.
• Bring the mixture to a simmer, then turn the heat to medium-low. Simmer for 45 minutes, stirring often as the sauce cooks to prevent scorching.
• While the sauce is cooking, boil the rigatoni according to package directions, but pull it off the heat once it starts to soften (after about 8 minutes). It will cook the rest of the way in the sauce.
• Add about 1/3 cup of the freshly snipped basil to the tomato sauce. Then stir in the butter.
• Add the cheese, 1/4 cup at at time, to the tomato sauce, stirring between each addition and giving it time to melt.
• Drain the pasta and add it to the tomato sauce. Stir well to coat the rigatoni.
• Serve with a sprinkling of fresh basil and parmesan cheese.

RIGATONI WITH STEAK SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a heavy large frying pan over high heat. Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper. Cook the steaks until they are brown but still rare in the center, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to a plate and set aside to cool completely. Add 2 more tablespoons of olive oil to the same pan. Saute the onions and carrots until the onions are translucent, about 8 minutes, with additional salt and pepper, to taste. Add the garlic and oregano, and saute for 1 minute. Add the wine and simmer for 1 minute. Add the marinara sauce and broth. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat to allow the flavors to blend, about 10 minutes. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, trim off any fat from the steaks, then cut the steaks into bite-size pieces and set aside. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the rigatoni and boil until it is tender but still firm to the bite, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Drain the rigatoni.
• Toss the rigatoni and reserved steak pieces and any accumulated juices from the steaks with the sauce to coat. Transfer the pasta to bowls. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese shavings and serve.
